User Reviews

Users praise Kidde for easy setup, centralized monitoring, and reliable water-leak detection that provides peace of mind. The main drawbacks are frequent false alarms, Wi-Fi connectivity issues, delays/remote-silence challenges in the app, and nuisance temperature alerts without clear readings or easy controls.
Pros
  • Easy setup for Kidde devices and a user-friendly app.
  • Peace of mind and reliable monitoring across multiple sensors.
  • Centralized monitoring with clear, proactive app notifications (offline status, low battery, etc.).
  • Water leak/flood detection alerts that can prevent costly damage.
  • Works with Google Home and Alexa for smart-home integration.
Cons
  • Frequent false alarms across multiple units.
  • WiFi connectivity problems, including devices losing connection and difficulty switching networks.
  • Delays in app notifications and limited remote silencing when not on the same network.
  • Temperature alerts are nuisance—alarms for freezing temperatures with no readable temperature and can’t be permanently disabled.

The many false alarms I could only disable when I was not at my home location. My neighbors were seriously annoyed by the noise and they could do l nothing about it. When I was at home, with nothing possibly to trigger the alarm I resorted to unplug the indicated device, wrapped in towels and moved it to a non disturbing location. After about 20 minutes I could reinstall it with no further hiccups. A 10 year carefree device should not expose the owner of so much regular inconvenience.

Have been using this for two years. Battery still at 70% and it never goes offline. Very reliable gives me peace of mind

My dad bought this water detector for all of the kids one Christmas and I grudgingly set it up. but one night unbeknownst to us, Our washer started leaking water through our baseboards into the basement. I immediately got a loud alert on my phone though the app and ran downstairs to check and while there wasn’t a lot of water (enough for a quick towel mop and some fans) this probably saved me from having to replace my entire flooring. Now it’s a staple and I recommend everybody should get this app and this device.
